Peace of the Wicked

(LONDON) - Though they continue to strike With a sick style of apartheidAll is excused in the name of security

As world powers turn a blind eyeAnd petty politicians recycle liesMurder is justified with a sense of superiority

Welcome to the peace of the wicked

Though peace was at their doorThey itch to wage yet another warFeeling like pre-battle Goliath, they do not worry

They want their enemies to lay armsMay be even take them into their armsAs they starve them beyond the limits of humanity

That's the peace of the wicked

Though their allies rally to their aidThey warn within minutes they could fadeClaiming to be the region’s only democracy

They hit below the belt and cry foulThey dress like sheep and yet howlThere is just no end to their hypocrisy

Expect more peace from the wicked
